 15:38 <desrt> - adding support to gvdb for path matches (like /org/gnome/foo/) to efficiently allow marking a range of keys for a particular purpose (such as...)

 15:38 <desrt> - in addition to allowing locks, it is now possible to specify "unlocks" -- a range of keys to which the user is allowed to write, excluding all others not in the list

 15:39 <desrt> - this is all obviously aimed at using the existing dconf file format as the basis for IPC between the system and containerised apps

 15:42 <Laney> • A lot of fixes, updates and followup fixes for 3.20

 15:43 <Laney> • Some signond debugging, since it started popping up a random authentication window

 15:47 <willcooke> #topic Sweet5hark1

 15:47 <qengho> Only XPMs

 15:47 <Laney> pfft, entry level

 15:47 <Sweet5hark1> - libreoffice 5.2.0 upstream release

 15:47 <Sweet5hark1> - libreoffice 5.2.0 snap release

 15:47 <Sweet5hark1> - libreoffice 5.2 testbuild on arm

 15:47 <Sweet5hark1> - CVE-2016-1513: tldr: AOO published an advisory about an issue, claiming LibreOiffice isnt affected, while in fact old versions were. they also denied sharing the PoC code, so we had to ask the researchers directly.

 15:47 <Sweet5hark1> -- As a bonus they have only published a source patch and still publish vulnerable binaries. we are good since thursday, which was the ad-hoc disclosure date added for LibreOffice after the fact

 15:47 <Sweet5hark1> - libreoffice/gtk3 and theming foo. first played with LibreOffice master against gtk 3.19, but then found both the LibreOffice 5.2 branch and the 3.20 stuff to be quite different ...

 15:47 <Sweet5hark1> - so did a local build of libreoffice 5.2 against 3.20 on a yakkety VM ... which failed because linking libmerged OOMed

 15:47 <Sweet5hark1> - some upstream triage, review and bugfixing

 15:47 <Sweet5hark1> EOF

 15:47 <willcooke> thanks Sweet5hark1

 15:47 <Sweet5hark1> (oh also: AOO apparently was informed 6 months ago)

 15:47 <willcooke> #topic TheMuso

 15:48 <willcooke> * Attempted to reproduce issues in bug #1574324 with no success, requested some info from those who experience it.

 15:48 <willcooke> * In working on the above, I did find that my own bluetooth headset can't be used with the A2DP profile in xenial, but works in yakkety. Think the issue is in bluez, going to spend some time trying to track down the needed patches and see about pushing the fix in an SRU.

 15:48 <willcooke> * Merged and uploaded alsa-utils 1.1.2 to yakkety.

 15:48 <ubot5> bug 1574324 in pulseaudio (Ubuntu) "pulseaudio crashes when connecting to bluetooth headphones (due to ubuntu changes?)" [High,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1574324

 15:48 <willcooke> #topic tkamppeter

 15:48 <tkamppeter> - Ghostscript: Investigating tray selection bug in PCL-XL driver.

 15:49 <willcooke> thanks Trevinho

 15:49 <willcooke> #topic aob

 15:50 <willcooke> No update from Robert, but he's full time on libsnapd

 15:50 <willcooke> I'm going to London again tomorrow

 15:50 <willcooke> so FJKong will reschedule our 1:1

 15:50 <willcooke> and hikiko, I think we're in sync already

 15:50 <seb128> just a note that feature freeze is coming

 15:50 <FJKong> willcooke: no p

 15:51 <willcooke> Anyone got anything else for the meeting?

 15:51 <seb128> and things are going to get a bit crazy

 15:51 <hikiko> yes willcooke, thanks!

 15:51 <seb128> we might need to MIR a stack of packages for getting u8 session in the iso

 15:51 <seb128> would be nice to dispatch some of the workload

 15:52 <willcooke> +1

 15:52 <seb128> so please keep some cycles in your planning for that

 15:53 <seb128> though I don't think there is much we can descope

 15:53 <seb128> like we landed transitions&updates in proposed/yakkety

 15:53 <seb128> so we need to sort the whole out now

 15:53 <seb128> anyway was just a pre-ff warning

 15:53 <seb128> thanks ;-)

 15:54 <willcooke> thanks seb128

 15:54 <willcooke> so lets wrap, thanks all

 15:54 <willcooke> #endmeeting
